Definitions
- the present invention relates to an emulsion pump, and more particularly to an anti-loosening emulsion pump.
- the emulsion pump is specifically a press type emulsion pump.
- an emulsion pump is mounted on a container opening of a bottled product such as body lotion, shampoo and the like. A user may press the emulsion pump to pump out the product in the container.
- FIGS. 16 a and 16 b show an emulsion pump presently commonly used.
- FIG. 16 a is a sectional view showing interior structure of the emulsion pump.
- the emulsion pump 100 includes a press head 110 with an outlet, a toothed sleeve 120 and a cylinder 130 .
- the toothed sleeve 120 threadedly connects to the opening of a container (not shown), and thus connects the emulsion pump 100 to the container.
- An end of the cylinder 130 is connected to the toothed sleeve 120 , and the other end thereof extends into the container.
- the emulsion pump 100 is further provided with a piston rod 140 , one end of which is fixedly connected to the press head 120 , and the other end thereof extends into the cylinder 130 .
- the interior of the piston rod 140 is fluidly communicated with the outlet of the press head 110 .
- a first spring seat 151 is provided at a lower portion of the piston rod 140
- a second spring seat 152 is provided in the cylinder 130 correspondingly, a compression spring 150 is supported between the first spring seat and the second spring seat 152 .
- the compression spring 150 exerts an upwardly biasing force on the piston rod 140 .
- the press head 110 and the toothed sleeve 120 are respectively provided with complementary internal and external threads, the press head 110 may be fixed on a locked position with the internal and external threads engaged.
- the press head 110 may transited from the locked position to an opening position by rotating the press head 110 in an open direction (a counter-clockwise direction) shown by an arrow in FIG. 16 b .
- the piston rod 140 moves upwardly by means of the biasing force of the compression spring 150 , and thus the press head 110 moves upwardly.
- the cylinder 130 is provided with a first valve 160 , and a piston head 170 is provided at the bottom portion of the piston rod 140 , the piston head 170 forms a check valve with a corresponding piston.
- the first valve 160 is also a check valve, and the flow direction thereof is identical to that of the check valve at the piston head 170 .
- the piston rod 140 moves upwardly together with the press head 110 by means of the upwardly biasing force of the press head 110 , at this time, the space between the first valve 160 and the piston rod 140 expands, during which the piston moves downward relative to the piston head 170 with the friction force applied by the cylinder to the piston, and thus closes the corresponding check valve.
- the pressure between the first valve 160 and the piston rod 140 decreases, and by means of such differential pressure, the first valve 160 opens, and thus allows the liquid in the container to flow into the space between the first valve 160 and the piston rod 140 .
- the existing emulsion pump presents some problems. Specifically, during transportation of the bottled product by express delivery, a tubular press mouth of the emulsion pump may undergo torque due to some reasons such as impact, drop and the like, thus resulting rotation of the press head. If the press head rotates in the opening direction, i.e. the counter-clockwise direction, it is possible that the press head may be turned to its opening position, and thus springs up. At this time, if the press head is pressed downward, the liquid in the container may be pumped out.
- the direction of the thread connection between the toothed sleeve and the container is identical to that of the thread connection between the press head and the toothed sleeve, that is, when the press head rotates in the opening direction, i.e. the counter-clockwise direction, by means of the torque exerted on the press mouth, it is possible that the toothed sleeve loosens from the opening of the container, resulting in leakage of liquid from the container. Furthermore, no matter the press mouth is exerted by a torque in the counter-clockwise direction or clockwise direction, there is a risk of the press mouth being broken by impact.
- the present invention is made in view of the aforementioned problems of the emulsion pump in the prior art.
- the purpose of the present invention is for providing an emulsion pump that can prevent the emulsion pump from loosening during transportation due to such reasons as impact and drop and the like, and thus from liquid leakage, and also can prevent the press mouth of the emulsion pump from being broken.

- the anti-loosening emulsion pump when the press head is rotated in the locking direction, the guide surfaces of the standing tooth blocks and of the standing tooth pieces engage with each other, so that the press head can rotate continuously in the locking direction, and when the press head rotates in the opening direction, the stop surfaces of the standing tooth blocks and of the standing tooth pieces interact with each other, so as to prevent the press head from rotating in the opening direction. Therefore, the anti-loosening emulsion pump can prevent the press head from being open due to such reasons as impact and the like, and can prevent the toothed sleeve from loosening from the opening of the container.

- the number of the standing tooth piece 14 on the press head 10 is two or more.
- an angular displacement between two adjacent standing tooth pieces can be properly selected, so that when one standing tooth piece 14 contacts with the standing tooth block 24 on the toothed sleeve 20 , at least one of the rest standing tooth pieces will not contact any one of the rest standing tooth blocks.
- the angular displacement ⁇ 1 between two adjacent standing tooth pieces 14 can be set different from the angular displacement ⁇ 2 between two adjacent standing tooth blocks 24 on the toothed sleeve 20 (see FIGS. 6 a and 6 b ), and the integer multiple of the angle ⁇ 1 is also different from the integer multiple of the angle ⁇ 2 .
- each standing tooth piece 14 is set as ⁇ 1 ( FIG. 4 ) and the angular scope taken by each standing tooth block is set as 132 ( FIG. 5 )

- At least one of the standing tooth piece 14 and the standing tooth block 25 is distributed in irregular spaces, and thus the probability that at least one standing tooth piece 14 does not contact with any one of the standing tooth blocks 24 can be increased as well.
- an angular displacement between one standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at one side thereof can be larger than an angular displacement between the one standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at the other side thereof, and the difference between these angular displacements is twice of the angular scope taken by one single standing tooth block, i.e. 2132 , or more.
- the aforementioned arrangements for the standing tooth piece 14 and for the standing tooth block 24 can be interchanged, i.e. the description on the standing tooth piece can be applied to the standing tooth block, and the description on the standing tooth block can also be applied to the standing tooth piece.
- the standing tooth piece 14 and standing tooth block 24 are arranged, it can be guaranteed that at least one standing tooth piece 14 will not yield due to being pressed by the standing tooth block 24 for a long time, and thus maintain the stop function of the standing tooth piece 14 .
- the stop surface 242 of the standing tooth block 24 can radially extend along the toothed sleeve 20 (as shown in FIG. 6 a ), or can form an angle ⁇ , which is less than 90°, with respect to the radial direction of the toothed sleeve 20 (as shown in FIG. 6 b ).

- the standing tooth piece may be provided on the toothed sleeve 20 , which can also realize the object of the present invention.
- the standing tooth block 24 is provided on the toothed sleeve 20 , but it may be also provided on a cylinder head of the cylinder 30 as well.
- At least one second standing tooth piece 27 is provided on a bottom portion of the inner surface of a toothed sleeve tube 21 of the toothed sleeve 20 .
- a second standing tooth block 67 is provided on the opening of the container 2 , as shown in FIGS. 7 a and 7 b .
- the connection structure between the toothed sleeve 20 and the opening of the container 2 is shown in FIGS.
- the aforementioned structure and arrangement of the standing tooth piece 14 and standing tooth block 24 can also be applied to the second standing tooth piece 27 and the second standing tooth block 67 .
- the torque needed for loosening the toothed sleeve from the opening of the container is preferably greater than the that needed for opening the press head from the toothed sleeve, and thus preventing the incident that the toothed sleeve is released from the opening of the container prior to opening the press head when rotating the press head.
- at least one of the following measures can be taken: designing the standing tooth piece and standing tooth block at the connection between the toothed sleeve and the container to be with thicker wall, greater number and/or more interference than the standing tooth piece and the standing tooth block at the connection between the press head and the toothed sleeve.
- other means known in the art may be used.
- the direction of loosening the toothed sleeve from the opening of the container is set to be opposite to the direction of opening the press head from the toothed sleeve.
- the toothed sleeve can be loosened from the opening of the container by rotating the toothed sleeve in counter clockwise direction, and on the contrary, if the opening direction of the press head is counter clockwise direction, the toothed sleeve will be loosened from the opening of the container by rotating the toothed sleeve in clockwise direction.
- the advantage of such an arrangement is that the sealing performance of the container can be further guaranteed.
- the principle is that when the press head 10 is rotated in the locking direction, it corresponds to the opening direction of the toothed sleeve 20 and the container 2 , and because the press head 10 can be idling with respect to the toothed sleeve 20 , no torque will be applied to the connection portion between the toothed sleeve 20 and the opening of the container 2 .
- the press head 10 If the press head 10 is rotated in the opening direction, it corresponds to the locking direction between the toothed sleeve 20 and the container 2 , at this time, although the torque is transferred to the connection portion between the toothed sleeve 20 and the opening of the container 2 due to the stop effect between the standing tooth piece 14 and the standing tooth block 24 , its effect is to further tighten the toothed sleeve 20 with the container 2 , so no leakage will be caused.
- FIGS. 9 a and 9 b respectively show a sectional view and a perspective view of the cylinder 30 .
- an annular sealing plug 32 extends downward from the lower surface of a cylinder flange 31 .

Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to an emulsion pump, and more particularly to an anti-loosening emulsion pump. The emulsion pump is specifically a press type emulsion pump.
- Generally, an emulsion pump is mounted on a container opening of a bottled product such as body lotion, shampoo and the like. A user may press the emulsion pump to pump out the product in the container.
FIGS. 16a and 16b show an emulsion pump presently commonly used.FIG. 16a is a sectional view showing interior structure of the emulsion pump. - As shown in
FIG. 16a , theemulsion pump 100 includes apress head 110 with an outlet, atoothed sleeve 120 and acylinder 130. Thetoothed sleeve 120 threadedly connects to the opening of a container (not shown), and thus connects theemulsion pump 100 to the container. An end of thecylinder 130 is connected to thetoothed sleeve 120, and the other end thereof extends into the container. Theemulsion pump 100 is further provided with apiston rod 140, one end of which is fixedly connected to thepress head 120, and the other end thereof extends into thecylinder 130. The interior of thepiston rod 140 is fluidly communicated with the outlet of thepress head 110. - A
first spring seat 151 is provided at a lower portion of thepiston rod 140, and asecond spring seat 152 is provided in thecylinder 130 correspondingly, acompression spring 150 is supported between the first spring seat and thesecond spring seat 152. Thecompression spring 150 exerts an upwardly biasing force on thepiston rod 140. - As shown in
FIG. 16a , thepress head 110 and thetoothed sleeve 120 are respectively provided with complementary internal and external threads, thepress head 110 may be fixed on a locked position with the internal and external threads engaged. Thepress head 110 may transited from the locked position to an opening position by rotating thepress head 110 in an open direction (a counter-clockwise direction) shown by an arrow inFIG. 16b . At the opening position, thepiston rod 140 moves upwardly by means of the biasing force of thecompression spring 150, and thus thepress head 110 moves upwardly. - The
cylinder 130 is provided with afirst valve 160, and apiston head 170 is provided at the bottom portion of thepiston rod 140, thepiston head 170 forms a check valve with a corresponding piston. Thefirst valve 160 is also a check valve, and the flow direction thereof is identical to that of the check valve at thepiston head 170. When thepress head 110 and thepiston rod 140 are at the opening position, the user may press thepress head 110 downward against the biasing force of thespring 150. At this time, a space between thefirst valve 160 and thepiston rod 140 is reduced, so that the pressure therein raises, by means of which, the product between thefirst valve 160 and thepiston rod 140 flows into the interior of thepiston rod 140, and is discharged through the outlet of thepress head 110. Upon the press on thepress head 110 by the user being releasing, thepiston rod 140 moves upwardly together with thepress head 110 by means of the upwardly biasing force of thepress head 110, at this time, the space between thefirst valve 160 and thepiston rod 140 expands, during which the piston moves downward relative to thepiston head 170 with the friction force applied by the cylinder to the piston, and thus closes the corresponding check valve. At this time, the pressure between thefirst valve 160 and thepiston rod 140 decreases, and by means of such differential pressure, thefirst valve 160 opens, and thus allows the liquid in the container to flow into the space between thefirst valve 160 and thepiston rod 140. - Nowadays, with the fast development of the E-commerce, the existing emulsion pump presents some problems. Specifically, during transportation of the bottled product by express delivery, a tubular press mouth of the emulsion pump may undergo torque due to some reasons such as impact, drop and the like, thus resulting rotation of the press head. If the press head rotates in the opening direction, i.e. the counter-clockwise direction, it is possible that the press head may be turned to its opening position, and thus springs up. At this time, if the press head is pressed downward, the liquid in the container may be pumped out. Also, the direction of the thread connection between the toothed sleeve and the container is identical to that of the thread connection between the press head and the toothed sleeve, that is, when the press head rotates in the opening direction, i.e. the counter-clockwise direction, by means of the torque exerted on the press mouth, it is possible that the toothed sleeve loosens from the opening of the container, resulting in leakage of liquid from the container. Furthermore, no matter the press mouth is exerted by a torque in the counter-clockwise direction or clockwise direction, there is a risk of the press mouth being broken by impact.
- So, there is a need for a novel emulsion pump used for a bottled product, which can overcome the aforementioned problems.
- The present invention is made in view of the aforementioned problems of the emulsion pump in the prior art. The purpose of the present invention is for providing an emulsion pump that can prevent the emulsion pump from loosening during transportation due to such reasons as impact and drop and the like, and thus from liquid leakage, and also can prevent the press mouth of the emulsion pump from being broken.
- The aforementioned purpose of the present invention can be realized by an anti-loosening emulsion pump comprising a press head including a press mouth; a toothed sleeve connected to an opening of a container mounted with the anti-loosening emulsion pump; a cylinder, an upper end of which is connected to the toothed sleeve and the other end of which extends into the container; a piston rod, an upper end of which is connected to the press head, and a lower end of which extends into a space within the cylinder, with a bore of the piston rod being communicated with an outlet of the press mouth; at least one first standing tooth piece provided at one of an inner surface of a press head sleeve of the press head and an outer surface of the toothed sleeve, which includes a first guide surface extending from the one of the inner surface of the press head sleeve and the outer surface of the toothed sleeve in an opening direction of the press head and forming an angle with a tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve, and a first stop surface provided at a side of the first standing tooth piece opposite to the first guide surface and forming an angle with the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve; and at least one first standing tooth block provided at other one of the inner surface of the press head sleeve of the press head and the outer surface of the toothed sleeve, which includes a second guide surface extending from the other one of the inner surface of the press head sleeve and the outer surface of the toothed sleeve in a locking direction of the press head and forming an angle with the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve and a second stop surface provided at a side of the first standing tooth block opposite to the first guide surface and forming an angle with the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve, wherein a radius of an inscribed circle of the first standing tooth piece is less than a radius of a circumcircle of the first standing tooth block, thereby an interference fit is formed between the first standing tooth piece and the first standing tooth block; and an internal thread and a first smooth surface are provided on the inner surface of the press head sleeve of the press head; an external thread and a second smooth surface are provided on an outer surface of the toothed sleeve, the internal thread, the external thread, the first smooth surface and the second smooth surface are provide in such a way that as the press head is rotated with respect to the toothed sleeve in the locking direction, the internal thread can move beyond the external thread, so that the internal thread completely enters into a position corresponding to the second smooth surface, and the external thread completely enters into a position corresponding to the first smooth surface.
- In such an anti-loosening emulsion pump with the aforementioned structure, when the press head is rotated in the locking direction, the guide surfaces of the standing tooth blocks and of the standing tooth pieces engage with each other, so that the press head can rotate continuously in the locking direction, and when the press head rotates in the opening direction, the stop surfaces of the standing tooth blocks and of the standing tooth pieces interact with each other, so as to prevent the press head from rotating in the opening direction. Therefore, the anti-loosening emulsion pump can prevent the press head from being open due to such reasons as impact and the like, and can prevent the toothed sleeve from loosening from the opening of the container.
- In a specific structure, a height of the first smooth surface is greater than a height of the external thread, and a height of the second smooth surface is greater than a height of the internal thread.
- Preferably, the angle formed between the first guide surface and the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve is less than the angle formed between the first stop surface and the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve; and/or the angle formed between the second guide surface and the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve is less than the angle formed between the second stop surface and the tangential direction of the press head or of the toothed sleeve
- Preferably, a chamfer or bevel is provided at one end of the standing tooth block facing the standing tooth piece. In such a way, when the press head is rotated in the locking direction and pressed downward, the standing tooth piece can slide smoothly beyond the standing tooth block along the chamfer or bevel on the standing tooth block.
- Preferably, the anti-loosening emulsion pump includes two or more first standing tooth pieces and two or more first standing tooth blocks, the first standing tooth pieces and the first standing tooth blocks are arranged in such a way that when one of the first sanding tooth pieces contacts with one of the first standing tooth blocks, at least one of the rest of the first standing tooth pieces does not contact any one of the rest of the first standing tooth blocks. In such a way, it can be guaranteed that at least one standing tooth piece does not contact or overlap with any one of the standing tooth blocks, and thus the risk that the standing tooth piece yield because of being pressed for a long time can be reduced.
- It can be realized by setting an angle displacement α1 of adjacent first standing tooth pieces and an angle displacement α2 of adjacent first standing tooth blocks in at least one of the following relationships: α1≠nα2; α2≠nα1; α1>nα2+θ or α1<nα2−θ; and α2>nα1+θ or α2<nα1−θ; wherein n is a natural number, θ is an efficient overlapping angle between the first standing tooth pieces and the first standing tooth blocks.
- Alternatively, at least one of the first standing tooth pieces and the first standing tooth blocks may be arranged in irregular spaces along a circumferential direction, and thus the probability that at least one first standing tooth piece does not contact any one of the first standing tooth blocks can be increased.
- For example, an angular displacement between one standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at one side thereof can be larger than an angular displacement between the standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at the other side thereof, and the difference between the angular displacements is at least twice of the angular scope taken by one single standing tooth block. Alternatively, this can also be applied to the standing tooth blocks, i.e. an angular displacement between one standing tooth block and an adjacent standing tooth block at one side thereof can be larger than an angular displacement between the standing tooth block and an adjacent standing tooth block at the other side thereof, and the difference between the angular displacements is at least twice of the angular scope taken by one single standing tooth block.
- One of at least one second standing tooth piece and at least one second standing tooth block can be respectively provided at a connection between the opening of the container and the toothed sleeve. The working principle of the second standing tooth pieces and the second standing tooth blocks here is identical to that of the first standing tooth pieces and the first standing tooth blocks.
- Preferably, the second standing tooth piece and the second standing tooth block are provided in such a way that a torque needed for loosening the toothed sleeve from the container is greater than that needed for loosening the press head from the toothed sleeve, so that the incidence that the toothed sleeve is loosened from the opening of the container prior to the press head is open during rotation of the press head can be prevented.
- The specific ways for realizing the aforementioned structure are designing the second standing tooth pieces and the second standing tooth blocks provided between the toothed sleeve and the opening of the containers to be with thicker wall, greater number and/or greater interference amount, or any other means known in the art.
- Preferably, the direction for loosening the toothed sleeve from the opening of the toothed sleeve is opposite to the direction for opening the press head from the toothed sleeve. Thus, the function of anti-loosening can be enhanced.
- In a more preferable embodiment, an annular sealing plug extends from a lower surface of a flange of the cylinder, an outer diameter of the annular sealing plug is larger than an inner diameter of the opening of the container. Thus, gasket used in the prior art can be omitted, and sealing can be maintained even the toothed sleeve is loosened from the opening of the container in some extent.
- Preferably, a chamfer or bevel is provided at a lower portion outside of the annular sealing plug. By providing the chamfer or bevel, insertion of the annular sealing plug into the opening of the container may be facilitated.
- In another preferred embodiment, the bore of the piston rod is mounted by an elastic valve, which is mounted into the bore of the piston rod in an interference fit, one end of the elastic valve opens, and the other end is closed by a thin wall provided with a cross shaped slit. The elastic valve can further guarantee the sealing effect of the emulsion pump.
- According to another aspect of the present invention, the anti-loosening emulsion pump comprises: a press head including a press mouth; a toothed sleeve connected to an opening of a container mounted with the anti-loosening emulsion pump; a cylinder, an upper end of which is connected to the toothed sleeve and the other end of which extends into the container; a piston rod, an upper end of which is connected to the press head, and a lower end of which extends into a space within the cylinder, with a bore of the piston rod being communicated with an opening of the press mouth; wherein the press mouth is movable relative to a body of the press head.
- By means of designing the press mouth movable relative to the body of the press head, the press mouth can move to a position where it is free of torque, and thus the risk of the emulsion pump being loosened and the press mouth being broken can be reduced.
- Preferably, the press mouth is mounted on the body of the press head in a telescopic way. Here, a handle is provided on the press mouth, when the press mouth is retracted within the body of the press head, the handle is at least partially exposed.
- Alternatively, the press mouth is foldably mounted on the body of the press head. Here, the press mouth is connected to the body of the press head by means of a hinge.
- In a further example, the press mouth is detachably mounted on the body of the press head.

FIGS. 1a and 1b , the emulsion pump 1 includes apress head 10, atoothed sleeve 20, acylinder 30 and apiston rod 40. An upper end of thecylinder 30 is connected to thetoothed sleeve 20, and a lower end thereof extends into a container 2 (seeFIG. 8a ). An upper end of thepiston rod 30 is connected to thepress head 10, and a lower end thereof extends into the space in thecylinder 30, and an inner space of thepiston rod 40 communicates with an outlet of apress mouth 11 on thepress head 10. Aspring 50, which exerts an upward force on thepiston rod 40, is provided between thecylinder 30 and thepiston rod 40. -

FIG. 2a , thepress head 10 includes apress head sleeve 12 and apress mouth 12 extending from the press head sleeve. Aninternal thread 13 and at least one standingtooth piece 14 are provided on an inner surface of the press head sleeve. The standingtooth piece 14 includes aguide surface 141 and astop surface 142. Theguide surface 141 extends from the inner surface of the press head sleeve in an opening direction of thepress head 10, and forms an angle with a tangential direction of thepress head 10. Thestop surface 142 is provided on a side of the standingtooth piece 14 opposite to theguide surface 141. The angle formed between theguide surface 141 and the tangential direction of thepress head 10 is smaller than that formed between thestop surface 142 and the tangential direction of thepress head 10. - Correspondingly, as shown in
FIG. 3a , anexternal thread 23 and at least one standingtooth block 24 are provided on an outer surface of thetoothed sleeve 20. The standingtooth block 24 also includes aguide surface 241 and astop surface 242. Theguide surface 241 of the standingtooth block 24 extends from the outer surface of the toothed sleeve in a locking direction of the press head, and forms an angle with the tangential direction of thetoothed sleeve 20. Thestop surface 242 of the standingtooth block 24 is provided on a side of the standingtooth block 24 opposite to theguide surface 241. The angle formed between theguide surface 241 and the tangential direction of thetoothed sleeve 20 is smaller than that formed between thestop surface 242 and the tangential direction of the stop surfacetoothed sleeve 20. - It shall be explained that the
press head 10 and thetoothed sleeve 20 are coaxially mounted, so the tangential direction of thepress head 10 and the tangential direction of thetoothed sleeve 20 are generally consistent with each other. -
FIG. 2b shows an inscribedcircle 16 of the standingtooth piece 14 of thepress head 10 in dash dot line, andFIG. 3b shows acircumcircle 26 of the standingtooth block 24 of thetoothed sleeve 20. In the present invention, the radius of the inscribedcircle 16 is less than that of thecircumcircle 26. Thus, when thepress head 10 rotates with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20 into a position in which the standingtooth piece 14 contacts with the standingtooth block 24, an interference fit is generated between the standingtooth piece 14 and the standingtooth block 24. - As shown in
FIGS. 4a to 4d , by means of the standingtooth piece 14 and the standingtooth block 24 provided according to the aforementioned structure, when thepress head 10 is rotated in the locking direction, theguide surface 141 of the standingtooth piece 14 of thepress head 10 and theguide surface 241 of the standingtooth block 24 of thetoothed sleeve 20 moves towards each other. At this time, the standingtooth piece 14 elastically deforms by means of the interaction between theguide surface 141 and theguide surface 241, so that the standingtooth piece 14 can move beyond the standingtooth block 24, as shown inFIGS. 4b to 4c . Further, when thepress head 10 is rotated in the opening direction, thestop surface 142 of the standing tooth piece and thestop surface 242 of the standing tooth block move towards each other, and interfere with each other, thus stopping the press head further rotating, as shown inFIGS. 4a and 4d . Thepress head 10 can further rotate to open only when a greater torque sufficient to destroy the standingtooth piece 14 is further exerted on thepress head 10. - Therefore, during transportation, if a torque in locking direction is exerted on the
press head 10, the guide surfaces 141 and 241 move towards each other, so that the standingtooth piece 14 can move beyond the standingtooth block 24, thus thepress head 10 may be idling with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20. - Further, if a torque in opening direction is exerted on the
press head 10 due to impact or drop during transportation, there is a stop action between the stop surfaces 142 and 242 each other, and the torque at this time is commonly insufficient to destroy the standingtooth piece 14, thus thepress head 10 may be prevented from opening. - As shown in
FIGS. 2a and 3a , the inner surface of thepress head sleeve 12 is further provided with asmooth surface 15, and the outer surface of thetoothed sleeve 20 is further provided with asmooth surface 25. The height of thesmooth surface 15 is set as h1, and the height of theinternal thread 13 is set as h2. The height of theexternal thread 23 is set as H1, and the height of thesmooth surface 25 is set as H2. - By setting the structure and size of the
internal thread 13, theexternal thread 23 and thesmooth surfaces press head 10 may be idling with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20 when is exerted with a torque in the locking direction. Specifically, the height h1 of thesmooth surface 15 on thepress head 10 is set to be greater or equal to the height H1 of theexternal thread 23 on thetoothed sleeve 20, and the height h2 of theinternal thread 13 on thepress head 10 is set to be less or equal to the height H2 of thesmooth surface 25 on thetoothed sleeve 20. In such a way, a “tooth skipping” structure may be formed between thepress head 10 and thetoothed sleeve 20. Specifically, when thepress head 10 is pressed downward and rotated with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20 in the locking direction, theinternal thread 13 of thepress head 10 meshes with theexternal thread 23 of thetoothed sleeve 20. With thepress head 10 continues to rotate, theinternal thread 13 may completely enter into thesmooth surface 25 in thetoothed sleeve 20, while theexternal thread 23 may completely enter into thesmooth surface 15 of thepress head 10. Therefore, thepress head 10 may be allowed to further be idling in the locking direction with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20. - Preferably, the number of the standing
tooth piece 14 on thepress head 10 is two or more. In such a case, an angular displacement between two adjacent standing tooth pieces can be properly selected, so that when one standingtooth piece 14 contacts with the standingtooth block 24 on thetoothed sleeve 20, at least one of the rest standing tooth pieces will not contact any one of the rest standing tooth blocks. For example, the angular displacement α1 between two adjacent standing tooth pieces 14 (seeFIG. 5 ) can be set different from the angular displacement α2 between two adjacent standing tooth blocks 24 on the toothed sleeve 20 (seeFIGS. 6a and 6b ), and the integer multiple of the angle α1 is also different from the integer multiple of the angle α2. In addition, if the angular scope taken by each standingtooth piece 14 is set as β1 (FIG. 4 ) and the angular scope taken by each standing tooth block is set as 132 (FIG. 5 ), the aforementioned angle α1 shall be larger than the angle 132, and the angle α2 shall be larger than the angle β1. Further, assuming that the efficient contact angle between the standing tooth piece and the standing tooth block is set as θ, that is, there is an angle at which the standing tooth piece and the standing tooth block at least partially contact each other, then the angle α1 shall be beyond the scope of an angle α2±θ. - Alternatively, at least one of the standing
tooth piece 14 and the standingtooth block 25 is distributed in irregular spaces, and thus the probability that at least one standingtooth piece 14 does not contact with any one of the standing tooth blocks 24 can be increased as well. For example, an angular displacement between one standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at one side thereof can be larger than an angular displacement between the one standing tooth piece and an adjacent standing tooth piece at the other side thereof, and the difference between these angular displacements is twice of the angular scope taken by one single standing tooth block, i.e. 2132, or more. - The aforementioned arrangements for the standing
tooth piece 14 and for the standingtooth block 24 can be interchanged, i.e. the description on the standing tooth piece can be applied to the standing tooth block, and the description on the standing tooth block can also be applied to the standing tooth piece. - In such a way that the standing
tooth piece 14 and standingtooth block 24 are arranged, it can be guaranteed that at least one standingtooth piece 14 will not yield due to being pressed by the standingtooth block 24 for a long time, and thus maintain the stop function of the standingtooth piece 14. - The
stop surface 242 of the standingtooth block 24 can radially extend along the toothed sleeve 20 (as shown inFIG. 6a ), or can form an angle γ, which is less than 90°, with respect to the radial direction of the toothed sleeve 20 (as shown inFIG. 6b ). - During the
press head 10 is locked on thetoothed sleeve 20, thepress head 10 is pressed downward along the axis while rotating thepress head 10 horizontally. In cooperation with the downward movement of thepress head 10, a chamfer orbevel 243 is provided on an upper end, i.e. an end facing the standingtooth piece 14, of the standingtooth block 24 of thetoothed sleeve 20, as shown inFIG. 3c . With the chamfer orbevel 243, when the standingtooth piece 14 contacts with the standingtooth block 24, the standing tooth piece can smoothly slide over the standing tooth block along the chamfer or bevel on the standing tooth block. - In the aforementioned structure, the standing tooth piece is provided on the
press head 10, and the standing tooth block is provided on thetooth sleeve 20. The standing tooth piece and the standing tooth block may be interchanged, i.e. the standing tooth block may be provided on thepress head 10, and the standing tooth piece may be provided on thetoothed sleeve 20, which can also realize the object of the present invention. - In aforementioned structure, the standing
tooth block 24 is provided on thetoothed sleeve 20, but it may be also provided on a cylinder head of thecylinder 30 as well. - Furthermore, as shown in
FIG. 3d , at least one secondstanding tooth piece 27 is provided on a bottom portion of the inner surface of atoothed sleeve tube 21 of thetoothed sleeve 20. Corresponding thereto, a secondstanding tooth block 67 is provided on the opening of thecontainer 2, as shown inFIGS. 7a and 7b . The connection structure between thetoothed sleeve 20 and the opening of thecontainer 2 is shown inFIGS. 8a and 8b , from which it can be seen that the arrangement and the principle of the secondstanding tooth piece 27 and the secondstanding tooth block 67 are substantially identical to those of the aforementionedstanding tooth piece 14 and the standingtooth block 24, which can prevent thetoothed sleeve 20 from accidently loosening from the opening of thecontainer 2. - The aforementioned structure and arrangement of the standing
tooth piece 14 and standingtooth block 24 can also be applied to the secondstanding tooth piece 27 and the secondstanding tooth block 67. - Furthermore, the torque needed for loosening the toothed sleeve from the opening of the container is preferably greater than the that needed for opening the press head from the toothed sleeve, and thus preventing the incident that the toothed sleeve is released from the opening of the container prior to opening the press head when rotating the press head. To this end, at least one of the following measures can be taken: designing the standing tooth piece and standing tooth block at the connection between the toothed sleeve and the container to be with thicker wall, greater number and/or more interference than the standing tooth piece and the standing tooth block at the connection between the press head and the toothed sleeve. In addition, other means known in the art may be used.
- Besides, in order to improve the sealing efficiency, the direction of loosening the toothed sleeve from the opening of the container is set to be opposite to the direction of opening the press head from the toothed sleeve. For example, if the press head is to be rotated in clockwise direction for opening the press head from the toothed sleeve, the toothed sleeve can be loosened from the opening of the container by rotating the toothed sleeve in counter clockwise direction, and on the contrary, if the opening direction of the press head is counter clockwise direction, the toothed sleeve will be loosened from the opening of the container by rotating the toothed sleeve in clockwise direction.
- The advantage of such an arrangement is that the sealing performance of the container can be further guaranteed. The principle is that when the
press head 10 is rotated in the locking direction, it corresponds to the opening direction of thetoothed sleeve 20 and thecontainer 2, and because thepress head 10 can be idling with respect to thetoothed sleeve 20, no torque will be applied to the connection portion between thetoothed sleeve 20 and the opening of thecontainer 2. If thepress head 10 is rotated in the opening direction, it corresponds to the locking direction between thetoothed sleeve 20 and thecontainer 2, at this time, although the torque is transferred to the connection portion between thetoothed sleeve 20 and the opening of thecontainer 2 due to the stop effect between the standingtooth piece 14 and the standingtooth block 24, its effect is to further tighten thetoothed sleeve 20 with thecontainer 2, so no leakage will be caused. -
FIGS. 9a and 9b respectively show a sectional view and a perspective view of thecylinder 30. As shown inFIG. 9a , anannular sealing plug 32 extends downward from the lower surface of acylinder flange 31. An outer diameter of theannular sealing plug 32 is slightly larger than the diameter of the opening of thecontainer 2. In such a way, when thetoothed sleeve 20 and thecylinder 30 connected together are mounted onto the opening of the container, theannular sealing plug 32 is inserted into the opening of the container, and interference fit with the opening of the container, and thus serves an function of sealing the container, as shown inFIG. 8a . In addition, a chamfer or bevel is provided at a lower portion of outer side of theannular sealing plug 32, and thus facilitates in fitting the annular sealing plug 32 into the opening of the container. With the annular sealing plug 32 provided, gaskets for sealing can be omitted, and thus the number of the components can be reduced. Also, since the sealing between the sealing plug and the opening of the container is a side surface sealing, and it has a certain length, leakage can also be prevented even the toothed sleeve is somewhat loosened from the opening of the bottle. - As shown in
FIG. 10 , anelastic valve 41 is provided at an upper portion of the bore of thepiston rod 40. The outer diameter of theelastic valve 41 is slightly larger than the diameter at the upper portion of the bore of thepiston rod 40. In such a way, theelastic valve 41 is pressed to fit in the bore of thepiston rod 40. As shown inFIG. 11a , theelastic valve 41 is in a cylinder shape, with its lower end open, and the upper end thereof is closed by athin wall 42. It can be seen from the top view shown inFIG. 11b that a cross shaped slit 43 is formed on thethin wall 42 at the upper end of theelastic valve 41. The cross shaped slit 43 is closed in its normal state, and the cross shaped slit 43 opens only when the differential pressure between two sides of thethin wall 42 is large enough, so that the liquid in the container can flow out. - By providing the
elastic valve 41, when the container is laid, the elastic valve will not open because the differential pressure between the two sides of thethin wall 42 is not large enough, thus leakage of liquid from the container may be prevented. - The inventor of the present invention also contemplates solving the technical problem of preventing loosening of the present invention with the structure of the
press mouth 11 of thepress head 10. - As shown in
FIGS. 12a and 12b , thepress mouth 11 on thepress head 10 is provided in a telescopic form. During transportation, the press mouth can be retracted within thepress head 10, as shown inFIG. 12a . During usage, the press mouth can be pulled out directly for use. Ahandle 111 may be provided at a front portion of thepress mouth 11, which is partially exposed when the press mouth is retracted within thepress head 11, and thus facilitates the user to pull thepress mouth 11 out. - As shown in
FIGS. 13a-14b , thepress mouth 11 may be made to be foldable, such as being foldable upward (FIGS. 13a and 13b ) or downward (FIG. 14 a and 14 b). Thepress mouth 11 connects to thepress head 10 by means of ahinge 112. - As shown in
FIGS. 15a and 15b , thepress mouth 11 of thepress head 10 is provided in a separate form. As shown inFIG. 15a , during transportation, thepress mouth 11 may be separated from thepress head 10. When used, thepress mouth 11 can be inserted into a corresponding hole provided in thepress head 10 for use. - The aforementioned telescopic, foldable or separate design for the
press mouth 11 allows for the press mouth being free of torque during transportation, and thus the risk of thepress head 10 being loosened from thetoothed sleeve 20 may be reduced. In addition, such provisions may also reduce the risk of thepress mouth 11 being broken.
